2016 Wildlife Photo Contest

Black Bear, Northern New Hampsire, USA
Re-United

Species: Black Bear | Location: Northern New Hampsire, USA

We went on a trip to Milan NH to photograph black bears when we spotted this small wet cub in the top of a tree, we hid ourselves and set up for a wait. Finally mama black bear came back and called her cub down from the tree - this is the moment they met after a day up the tree by itself - such a precious and touching moment.

About The Photographer

My husband and I have been video graphing and photographing wildlife for 16 years. My husband Robert tends to do more of the photography, while I concentrate on the video side of things. But whenever I can, I get behind the camera and try my hand at getting some keeper photos. We are serious amateurs and have been on one Nathab trip before to Katmai to see the coastal grizzly bears. We mainly use Nikon gear and just love Bears, Eagles, Moose - one of of dream trips that we hope to have is to go and see the polar bears one day.
